Defender (New 2024 Version)

I don’t need safety toe shoes often, but my old boots hurt my feet. I got these for customer shop visits, and they fit great with no discomfort. The first day, I walked about 3 miles and was on my feet all day with no issues.

These shoes have blown me away! I walk on concrete 40-50 hours a week and need steel toe boots. After years of wearing Red Wings, I gave these a try. They felt a bit snug in the toe at first, but after a week, they were perfect. Super soft, comfortable, and I’ve noticed much less foot fatigue. I’ll definitely be getting another pair when these wear out!

At first glance these look very solid. Quality is nice and construction seems sturdy. They look like a regular sneaker so I wear them everywhere the past few days. will update

I notice the soles are much more grippy than the original defenders. Also they are astm certified for my job unlike some competitors. I work around cars so im always walking on oil. The grip is solid and the shoe is very comfortable. I got mine with the upgraded insoles which are definitely good for me.

These saved my feet. Dropped a wrench from 6 feet high right on my left toe and it bounced right off. If I was wearing my non steel toe shoes my foot would for sure have broken. Will be wearing these for a while.

Looks very nice, arrived fast. These feel like a normal shoe nothing like a timberland boot. Usually steel toes feel crazy heavy and uncomfortable definitely not these.

I work at FedEx and go through shoes every 6 months. I've tried several brands and didn’t mind paying as long as they were comfortable. I’ve tried Keen (3 different models around $140 each), Danner, Red Wing, etc. I’m writing this to help others in the same boat. I’m 6'4" with size 12 feet, and these shoes are the best. They might change your life! Best part? FedEx paid for them, but I’d happily pay for them myself. They're seriously worth trying out.

theyre comfortable and have lasted longer than other brands I've tried in the past I'm a heavy guy 268lbs 6.4" i work on cars every day shoes take the beating and the chemicals every day still intact will buy another pair wen they give out

Love the new defenders the upgrades are super nice. I notice a big improvement in durability. They are a bit thicker, which I like. The protection is overall better and they are super comfortable. Will be buying another pair as they have held up well.

These shoes have seriously changed my life. I work as a mechanic in a distribution center, on my feet all day on concrete, and regular shoes just didn't cut it. My feet used to throb every day until I got these. The insoles are super comfortable and haven’t lost any of their cushioning. The tread is tough and has saved me from slipping in hydraulic fluid more than once. These shoes take a beating and keep going, plus the fit is perfect (which is hard to find with size 15 feet). No more aches or pains, and I’ll definitely be buying another pair. Quick tip: they break in fast—took just half a workday!
